Babies on the mind: Sylvia recently told Women's Weekly that she and Peter are hoping for a 'house full of kids'

Speaking of her early starts, with the Today show commencing at 6am, Sylvia said: 'It's a supercharged process which begins with my first alarm at 3.15am. I always set a back-up alarm for 3.17am - in case I drift back into a deep sleep.

'But once my feet hit the ground, it's a fast-paced journey from bed to shower to kitchen to car. I roll through the Channel Nine gates at about 4.03am.'

Proposal: Peter popped the question in July last year, while the couple were enjoying a romantic getaway in France
